< Psalms 33 >

1 Exult, ye righteous, in Jehovah: praise is comely for the upright.
Sing, you righteous, in YHWH, [For] praise from upright ones [is] lovely.
2 Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp; sing psalms unto him with the ten-stringed lute.
Give thanks to YHWH with a harp, With stringed instrument of ten strings sing praise to Him,
3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud sound.
Sing to Him a new song, Play skillfully with shouting.
4 For the word of Jehovah is right, and all his work is in faithfulness.
For the word of YHWH [is] upright, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.
5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the loving-kindness of Jehovah.
Loving righteousness and judgment, The earth is full of the kindness of YHWH.
6 By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
By the word of YHWH The heavens have been made, And all their host by the breath of His mouth.
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; he layeth up the deeps in storehouses.
Gathering the waters of the sea as a heap, Putting the depths in treasuries.
8 Let all the earth fear Jehovah; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
All the earth is afraid of YHWH, All the inhabitants of the world are afraid of Him.
9 For he spoke, and it was [done]; he commanded, and it stood fast.
For He has spoken, and it is, He has commanded, and it stands.
10 Jehovah frustrateth the counsel of the nations; he maketh the thoughts of the peoples of none effect.
YHWH made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.
11 The counsel of Jehovah standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
The counsel of YHWH stands for all time, The thoughts of His heart from generation to generation.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah, the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance!
O the blessedness of the nation whose God [is] YHWH, Of the people He chose, For an inheritance to Him.
13 Jehovah looketh from the heavens; he beholdeth all the sons of men:
YHWH has looked from the heavens, He has seen all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habitation he looketh forth upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked to all inhabitants of the earth;
15 He who fashioneth the hearts of them all, who considereth all their works.
Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending to all their works.
16 The king is not saved by the multitude of [his] forces; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
17 The horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth he deliver by his great power.
A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And he does not deliver By the abundance of his strength.
18 Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his loving-kindness,
Behold, the eye of YHWH [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waiteth for Jehovah: he is our help and our shield.
Our soul has waited for YHWH, He [is] our help and our shield,
21 For in him shall our heart rejoice, because we have confided in his holy name.
For our heart rejoices in Him, For we have trusted in His Holy Name.
22 Let thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.
Let Your kindness, O YHWH, be on us, As we have waited for You!
